Just an update for people having constant issues:

I flashed V1.0 and had no issues what-so-ever. When I upgraded to 1.0.1, I did a MyBackup Root backup of all the APK's and data and then restored BOTH (APK's and data) when it loaded. WiFi/Wired tether wouldn't work, SoundHound would FC constantly, app's acted FuNkYpAnTs on the phone, battery life was atrocious even after a calibration.

I resolved this issue by backup up my SD card on the computer, deleting everything on it (except my EB13 directory that had the rom zip file) and then booting to CWM, wipe x 3 factory data, wipe x 3 cache, wipe x 3 dalvik (but posted an error saying "couldn't find directory") and then re-flashed the rom. When it loaded, I only restored APK's (NOT DATA) and then began the day.

I'm posting this on my 4G WiFi tethered laptop with no FC's all day and a blazingly fast experience!

Give it a skim. Good luck, and great work dev's!

See, I keep seeing people with screen on times of 4 hours getting good battery life. I generally get less than TWO hours screen on time and I'm needing to charge my phone after 13 hours. I have the fully loaded ROM flashed with stock kernel settings (no SetCPU) and I get this kind of battery life. To format my SD card, can I just transfer everything onto a computer, format it, and then put it back or would that be defeating the purpose? I'll try anything but I really need this to work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
That would be defeating the purpose ;)

Thank you for the feedback and for your support :)

I am not experincing it. I did a test just to make sure. But I can say I have not dropped 4g last nite uploading a ton of pix at 6mb each
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
for those with the Wifi Tether issues, please just use the one from the market. works without issues for me
[Epic 4G Android Development] jbadboy2007:
You should check what server you are testing from sometimes they can limit the bandwidth or if they have heavy traffic it will be slower results. I change mine a couple times to insure accuracy.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
That doesn't have 4G tethering though ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
I have heard people saying this, but it tethers 4g for me, always have & thats all I use.

Maybe somehow its because I pay for the Sprint Hotspot app?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yes, that'd be why :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
ahh gotcha lol well, im gonna keep paying for it lol

I gotta have 4g tether so either way I'd be paying
[Epic 4G Android Development] bricky23:
Wow, it must be great having 4g. Where I live I'll probably never know.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
it really, where I lived before, I couldnt get it and 3g was slow..

im lucky where Im at now

How can you brag about your wee-wee if you can't quantify it. Running around screaming, "I have a huge PEE PEE!" (subjective) is less effective than "I have a three inch pokin' stick!" (objective).

Mommy always told them three inches was huge and now that they can quantify it, they can waggle it around and compare with others.

Or was that a rhetorical question? :D

/You mean 12 inches ISN'T average? Huh. Weird.

On Eclair DI18, I had an issue where my phone was connected to my laptop via Mass Storage and if I received a text, phone call, or email (where I use ringtones, notifications from the SD card) my phone would use an extremely annoying default ringer.

My simple conclusion was since I was in mass storage mode, the phone was trying to read the card and failed, so it temporarily reverted to a default ringer that resided on the phone itself.

Does this still happen if you do as the quote states?
[Epic 4G Android Development] big_bake:
Look back at your post. The sdcard is in mass storage mode which means it unmounts from the phone and mounts to the computer to be able to transfer files. That is why when you unplug the usb cable the media scanner runs, and picks the sdcard back up on the phone along with any new files.

EDIT: I guess to answer your questions, yes it happens to me. I'm not hooked into mass storage for more than a few min so it's only happened to me once or twice. Nothing is wrong, the sdcard just isn't able to be accessed by the phone in this mode.

Anyone else having problems playing words with friends on this rom? I think the ad blocking is causing issues with this app.
[Epic 4G Android Development] worldlyinquirer:
Guys quick question when you guys wipe your phone do you alternate e.g. factory date, cache, dalvik, factory date, dalvik etc, or just simply wipe x 3 data, wipe x 3 cache, wipe x 3 dalvik in order?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Do you have the CPU set to 1.2?

It also fixes apps dependent on the map ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] nikon120:
Yea I figured I already knew and answered my own question, but still asked because I haven't jumped to EB13 yet. I did not know if the phone still did the same thing or if it copied the ringtone to internal memory when selected.

I haven't done the upgrade yet since I was on vacation, then coming back home to Mardi Gras, lol. 10 day drink-a-thon, what what. :cool:

Thanks for confirming my own answer.

This morning I booted into recovery and wiped my battery settings 3 times. When I rebooted, my phone went nutso and FC'd about 20 random apps at startup, then continuously FC'd Launcher Pro. I had to pull the battery to even reboot it, but it still did the same thing on reboot.

I ended up nandroid restoring from yesterdays backup, but anyone have any idea what might have caused that? Did I accidentally wipe dalvik instead of battery?

So I flashed with Odin, everything went good, phone booted normally. Ran CMW One click, everything went good, as it seemed. Booted into Recovery, CWM started doing something, I believe it was backing up or something. After it finished, rebooted the phone but phone won't get pass the Samsung Logo. Is it normal to take a long time?? Or should I flash with Odin once more?

Thank

[Epic 4G Android Development] Miggleworm:
You need to flash a rom or kernal that supports EXT4 BEFORE you reboot the phone after CWM3 does it's thing, other wise your phone wont boot.

Hm, so weird. Reinstalled Wifi tether from here:

http://android-wifi-tether.googlecode.com/files/wifi_tether_v3_0-pre11.apk

And all of a sudden it's working again with 4g (used to reboot my phone). Only thing I did different was change the device-profile to the epic.

But, 4g is definitely working (bumps my laptop speed test from 0.73mbps 3g to ~2.5mbps 4g). Service sucks in my house...

Anyways, I had the market wireless tether working at one point too so we will see if this breaks again...

EDIT: Ok, I was able to re-create and correct the previous problem. Running 4g wifi tether without a problem now.

Basically, once I reboot my phone, the wifi tether "breaks". If I try to start it with 4g on it will crash my phone. However, once I start it with only 3g on, then turn 4g on afterwards, the app works just fine.

I can stop, start, completely kill the app (+clearing ram), and it will continue to turn off/on just fine with 4g on. But, if I reboot my phone, I have to turn 4g on after I start tethering to get it working again.

Weird, but happy I have it functioning now. Hope this helps someone (btw my device-profile is on the Epic 4g as stated above).
[Epic 4G Android Development] jirafabo:
Actually, I think that's fixed now. The newest version of CWM3 works fine after conversion even with an old rom....
[Epic 4G Android Development] jbadboy2007:
That's weird I can not get mine to work at all. I tried several times now.

I think it works ok, if you have a deodexed rom, and a ext4 or dual kernal. But if you don't have either , you need to flash, before rebooting.

Today I used the hell out of my phone because I had a lot of time to kill at work. Today is the fist time ever I haven't had to charge it after lunch. I tried playing around with everything and everything worked flawless! I can't believe the speed and keyboard response improvement. I no longer hit a t and l 2 times! Lol.

[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Thanks for your support!

Good to see some insight on the issue, here - are you folks who are using WiFi Tether and getting reboots all on 4G? If so, that would almost completely explain the issue, and why I can't reproduce it. 4G and WiFi can't be turned on at the same time by default for a reason - I'm betting that early in testing Samsung found them to be unstable. Why it works for the official Hotspot I couldn't tell you, but my guess is that they pinpointed the instability and fixed it.

Has anyone been able to get the Total Protection App from Sprint to work? It says "Phone not supported" though it worked fine on Stock.

Other than that... I'm loving this ROM and will keep putting it over the stress test for the next couple of days at least.

battery life sucks on this phone period. i use the phone a lot to stream talk radio, to watch you tube to read forums like this. I need to get the seidio online battery that is 3300mha. i currently have two standard samsung batteries the 1500... i am lucky with two hours of charge time....
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Forget the Seidio one - the Chinese/eBay 3500mAh is going to be almost as good (see Seidio's test results) for $15.

As for TEP, it's said to work only with Eclair, and there are far-superior alternatives that don't act as yet another vector for Sprint. Check out Lookout - it has the location features, along with the added bonus of the most proactive security solution on Android.
